Package: spambayes Version: 1.0.4-4 Severity: normal (Submitting a new report even though this is related to #476274, because since the program now runs, it's probably not "grave" anymore, and it's somewhat a separate issue.)
When I try to install the spambayes 1.0.4-4 package using Aptitude, it now correctly tries to compile the spambayes code for Python 2.5, but gives me an error similar to that reported by Drew Hess in #476274: """ Setting up spambayes (1.0.4-4) ...

When I run sb_filter.py, it seems to function, despite postinst failing. I don't know for sure whether it's actually working or just pretending to work. ---> Drake Wilson -- System Information: Debian Release: lenny/sid APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable') Architecture: amd64 (x86_64) Kernel: Linux 2.6.24.2 (SMP w/2 CPU cores) Locale: LANG=en_US.UTF-8, LC_CTYPE=en_US.UTF-8 (charmap=UTF-8) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Versions of packages spambayes depends on: ii python 2.5.2-0.1 An interactive high-level object-o ii python-central 0.6.2 register and build utility for Pyt spambayes recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
